I learned countless new things involving my Macbook that I will continue to use throughout my four years at SUA, without a doubt. I never knew how make iMovies and brochures, or use voice overs and the green screen before taking this class. My skills using laptops have greatly improved while learning during this term. My typing abilities have also gotten faster and easier through the many projects involving typing.

    As a child growing up in Rhode Island, the smallest state in the Union, the idea of a vast planet brimming with civilization and culture was more like something out of a fairy tale than it was reality. So, when my father announced that we would be leaving the country to go to Scotland, the home of his and my ancestors, my world began to expand at a rapid pace.
